RCL is looking for Volunteer Service Opportunities to support our community. If you are involved with an organization or know of an organization that is in need of volunteers, please email our Local Community Services Chair, Heather Broadhead, Heather@bfg-inc.ca, with a detailed description of the need and requirements. From there, a call will go out to our members to assist.
More and more people since Covid 19 hit are spending time on the internet, some for good reasons and others for criminal reasons!
---CHEQUE PRESENTATIONS---
On Nov 25th at RBC Place, past President Howard Shears presented a Rotary Club of London Foundation cheque to Glen Pearson of the London Food Bank to help pay for lunches that are being prepared by RBC Place Executive Chef David VanEldik and Executive Sous Chef Chris Podgornik. These funds were donated by members in lieu of lunch money and matched by the RCL Foundation. Hot lunches are served on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and soon Saturday and cold lunches are served Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday. Lunches are picked up by 519 Pursuit and other organizations and personally delivered to those in need. A proud moment for the Rotary Club of London and RBC Place!
